</I>&gt;<i> &gt; I think you missed my point. If Mageia 1 &quot;backports&quot; has higher versions

</I>&gt;<i> &gt; currently our tools do not take backports from the target release
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; (mageia 2) into account when upgrading a distro.
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> And i think a mga N-1 bp should have mga N bp as well in that case or

</I>&gt;<i> can't have backports, just that we do really want that backport :)
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> What we need is, however, being sure no one submits a package to bp_testing

</I>&gt;<i> adding a bug report to manage that update/backport. I say that because it
</I>&gt;<i> happened for updates. I think it should be clear that QA won't test a
</I>&gt;<i> package only because it is in XX_testing repository and that maintainer
</I>&gt;<i> does not have to go and see on testing to know that someone has already
</I>&gt;<i> done the work, maybe after having done some work on it... am i wrong?

Yes, it is already clear in the policy as it is written, in my opinion.
